The Abbaye was founded by Constance de Bretagne and was of great significance
throughout the fifteenth century.
A large portion was destroyed during the French Revolution.
Neglected since world war II, it was fully restored in 1977.
The original structre from the eighteenth century is the old cistercian guest quarters.
A structurally sound original section of
the cloister serves as the restaurant which offers exceptional cuisine
equal to its surroundings.
A large monumental staircase leads to the Prior's home. The " large
monks room " has just been rebuilt and can accomodate up to 300 people
for conferences or receptions.
